SEAGROVE BEACH — Guests at 723 Whiskey Bravo came together Feb. 8 as Skip Moore hosted a Party with a Purpose to celebrate 2013 HALO award recipient Victoria Moore.

Victoria, Moore’s wife, was recognized for Helping Achieve Life-changing Outcomes (HALO) through her outstanding efforts as a dedicated Angel Flight Soars volunteer, according to a news release from Angel Flight.

The Angel Flight mission is to arrange free air transportation for people who need to travel to receive lifesaving medical treatment but lack the means.
With 150 attendees, the Party with a Purpose successfully raised more than $85,000 for Angel Flight.

Victoria and husband Skip, owners of 723 Whiskey Bravo, have been active with the organization, serving on the Angel Flight board of directors and flying missions that transport patients in need to their medical treatments around the country.

One of their most memorable missions was with Kevin, a 7-year-old from Valdosta, Ga., who was diagnosed with cancer. Kevin, now 11, was on hand for the Party to thank the Moores and Angel Flight, even sharing that he is excited about his upcoming mission for a checkup to confirm that he is still in remission.

A longtime friend of Angel Flight, Victoria Moore has contributed as a co-pilot, an “earth angel” and as a member of the board of directors. Victoria began flying for Angel Flight after she and her husband Skip acquired their Cirrus SR22 and Skip got his instrument rating. The Moores have always flown missions together, and still fly missions to this day. Victoria’s ability to connect with people and her altruism have led her to provide hope for families in ways that will leave a lasting mark.
